Love My Vet, But Wish We Weren't There So Much

So today, while I was putting groceries away, Ginger found a piece of Extra Sugar-Free gum, which contains xylitol.  When I found her, I could only find half the stick.  I panicked and called the vet.  They told me to bring her in right away so they could check her out and induce vomiting.  It normally takes almost half an hour to get to our vet and I think I made it in 15 minutes.  They gave her the stuff and we waiting for her to throw up.  They found a couple itty-bitty pieces of gum.  The… Continue

Pet Peeve for the day: Not all short-legged mongrels are "part Corgi"

Periodically, I check Petfinder to see if there are any Corgis in kill shelters in my area.  I am happy to report that in several years of looking, I have not seen any.  I have seen some puppy-mill rescues or owner surrenders in no-kill shelters within a few hundred miles of here, but that's about it.

 

I do see a TON of "Corgi mixes."

 

There are almost no Corgi breeders anywhere near me, and all the pets I've ever met (there aren't many) are neutered.  In other…

Corgi doing the butt drag on It's Me or The Dog tonight!

Family walking some out of control dogs - one lunges at a corgi walking the other direction on the sidewalk.

What does the corgi do?

Butt drag and look up at his owner of course!

Hopefully someone can get a screenshot of it.

That's Not A Rabbit

Went to the beach last weekend and had a ball of a time. The dogs have been at half-energy ever since, so spastic was their frenetic frapping.

 

I did see something that gave me pause though. My boyfriend was playing with them with a piece of washed up cane. Those strong, sturdy, springy kind of canes. Reagan got a little bit over eager and snapped the end off.

Not by twisting or chewwing or worrying it. He jumped up, caught it with his back teeth and in the same motion…

Loss of Appetite

So the past few days Reese doesn't want to finish her Kibble.  Usually she eats her kibble right up and gets all excited about it... and now she runs and hides when we say kibble.  We have no idea why... once we get her in front of her kibble, she'll eat the little bit of wet food we mix in there, few pieces of her dry food, and runs away not finishing her food.  Is she just being a weirdo or do you think she's not feeling well?  She seems to be normal... wanting to play, run, etc.  I've tried… Continue

When Wanting To Help, Becomes Too Much

Day of doom/they were spayed/neutered =/

Poor puppies look so sad... Apollo is totally out of it and isn't eating/drinking/peeing/pooping. Hopefully he's back to normal after a good night of rest. Still I think Artemis would have been a good momma =/ Poor girl isn't eating/drinking and keeps trying her hardest to pee but just can't get more than a few drops out yet... Gonna be a long night watching my babies.

First AKC Agility Trial was All-or-Nothing!

Ashton competed in his very first AKC Agility trial and we are so happy with him. He loves agility so much. We went into the trial hoping for the best but expecting, well, a corgi. He was the amazing all-or-nothing pup and competed in Standard (the course with the A-frame, tunnels, dog walk, etc..) and in Jumpers With Weaves (like it sounds, jumps and weave poles, sometimes a…

Special Treats

For some reason lately I've been wanting to dote on the dogs more than usual and have had urges to give them some of my table scraps. In the past I've always been strict about not giving them any people food and sticking with minimal amounts of dog treats. I don't know what's come over me all of the sudden, but I felt like I needed an outlet. So I did a quick search and found these 2 articles: 10…

In Memory of Bandit.

I just heard some sad news today that one of my family members lost her beloved Jack Russell, Bandit, today.  He went in on Monday for some blood tests and he had cirrhosis of the liver and had to be put down.

 

My heart breaks for Gramma Linda. Bandit was her baby and was so well cared for and loved. He always smelled like baby powder and was so squeaky clean all the time :)  I wish I had a picture of him. He was an adorable grey wire haired jack russell that was pretty small…

I love my Corgi puppy- does he love me?

I have had Johann for almost 2 weeks now and he turned 10 weeks old today.  He was very sweet with me for the first few days... But lately he hasn't been wanting to cuddle and won't cooperate with his harness.  He just sits there.  I tug and release the leash but he continues to just sit and looks at me like I'm an idiot.  I offer him treats while we are walking but once he goes a few feet, he stops and lays down no longer interested in the treat.  When other people are out walking during leash… Continue
